The Villa de Leyva full day tour gives you the opportunity to visit one of the finest examples of a traditional colonial town in Colombia. Travel from the capital city Bogotá along an exciting bus tour route passing exotic biodiversity, small Colombian towns and national relics before reaching the National Monument town of Villa de Leyva where you’ll ramble through its pretty cobbled streets to discover outstanding colonial history, culture and architecture.

This full day tour will take you from Bogotá travelling north through the beautiful countryside scenes of the Andean highlands and Cundiboyacense, before arriving at Villa de Leyva. This town, located in Boyacá Province, was founded in 1572. It has been so well preserved thanks to its status as a National Monument that you’ll feel like you’ve travelled back in time! Among other places of interest, is the vast cobbled Plaza Mayor (one of the largest urban squares in Colombia) with its many restaurants and stores selling authentic handicrafts from the Boyacá province. This Villa de Leyva day tour will then take you to El Infiernito (little hell), an archaeological site where the ruins of an ancient Muisca shrine (and an astronomical observatory) can be found. Next, head to the startlingly azure Blue Ponds, a series of wells created by farmers. If you extend your stay in Villa de Leyva, there are a number of outdoor activities as well as archaeological sites to visit nearby. Before returning to Bogotá, you will end your full day bus tour with a visit to a nearby charming village called Ráquira, well known for its pottery and craftwork.

This Day Tour to Villa de Leyva is perfect for families or travellers wanting to spend a peaceful day exploring more of the area surrounding Bogotá. Book this full day excursion for a bit of tranquility while exploring Colombia’s beautiful colonial towns and historical land.
